Jon Jones has said he wants to be the first fighter to retire with a 50-0 record in MMA. (I guess the undisputed UFC Lightweight Heavyweight champion isn’t counting that no-contest.) Standing in his immediate path at UFC 235 is Anthony Smith (31-13-0), who has incredible striking power and could prove a worthy adversary—if he can keep the fight upright.
In the co-main event, UFC Welterweight champion Tyron Woodley (19-3-1) takes on Kamaru Usman (14-1-0). You couldn’t ask for much more in a pay-per-view event. Here’s everything you need to know to watch a UFC 235 live stream.
UFC 235: Jon Jones vs. Anthony Smith
- When: 10pm ET, Saturday, March 2

UFC 235 live stream: How to watch Jones vs. Smith online
If you’ve cut the cord, there are still a few ways you can watch UFC 235 online, but no matter which one you select, it’s always the same price: $54.99 (for standard definition) or $64.99 (HD). It’s also worth noting the following options apply only to the main event PPV itself. To watch the preliminary bouts, you’ll need access to UFC’s Fight Pass and ESPN (both covered below). Here’s everything you need to know to live stream UFC 235.
1) Sling TV
- Sling TV devices: Amazon Fire TVs, Android Fire Stick, Apple TV, Android TV, Roku, Xbox One, Google Chromecast, and iOS and Android devices
Sling TV is the only live TV streaming service that lets you order UFC PPV events. You do have to either be an existing Sling TV customer (you can sign-up for a free seven-day trial here) or a previous Sling TV customer to order UFC 235. But with packages that start at just $15 per month (thanks to a limited-time offer), there’s a lot to love about Sling TV. For the ESPN channels on Sling TV, where you’ll find tonight’s preliminary bouts, you can get either Sling Orange or upgrade to Sling Orange + Blue, which is on sale right now for just $25 per month. That’s an incredible deal. (Here’s a complete guide to Sling TV channels and our Sling TV review.)
